Made my husband jump by going "FAAAAARRRK" (so ladylike) and then giggling hysterically at the last panel. Weather is turning mercifully cooler here and I have an overload of assignments to hand in as I am the queen of procrastination.

Took a break from my final English Comp research paper to check in on Freakangels. After 6 pages of angsty relation to both star-crossed lovers, my jaw dropped at the last page and then contorted into a grin. I doubt I'll be audibly laughing at a webcomic again anytime soon, but it just caught me so wonderfully off guard.

Also, does this mean the Freakangels are immortal? First Mark gets brain-sniped and is privately pronounced dead by two capable telepaths and then mysteriously shows up no worse for wear (well, that's arguable, but you get my point), followed by 'Kady getting concussed a few feet above a watery near-death experience in which she meets some sort of noological collective that ushers her back into the living, and now

Luke is definitely fucking dead immediately followed by being definitely a fucking zombie.

Don't tell me I'm the only one seeing an inadvertent godmode pattern here.

The week has been shit - teaching to a bunch of 8th graders who have mentally checked out is living hell.

Loved the facial expressions, but my reaction to all this was "Mark has gotten to him."

Then multiple "oh shit" comments for the last, brilliant page. Obviously wounds don't stop the FAs from coming back, but he ain't Wolverine. Head, hand, heart still open. Wonder what the back of his head looks like?

Oh, and none of them, Mark, Arkady or Luke seems to have any memory of actually being killed, just being unconscious and then unaware of the severity of the wounds. Interesting.

I think this might be my favourite episode so far. The scene between Jack and Sirkka was just so intense in both visual and dialogue terms. Then we get a very melancholy moment with Connor. And THEN I laughed my ass of at Luke's return from the dead! Hats off to all concerned, particularly to Paul for some very pretty gore.

I've been better - I got a little too boozed up last night, and woke up to find my constituency had been smeared with blue shit. On the upside, another three day weekend with many good things in it ahead, so on balance I can't complain. Happy Friday everyone!

UNBE-FUCKING-LIEVABLE. Though I have to admit, the more people talked about it, and the more I thought about it, I was afraid this would happen.

And poor MIki, all that slaving over Kirk to make sure he 'lived' when all she had to do was stash him in an abandoned storefront. That's gotta be a bit galling.

Poor Jack too, I suppose. Still though, this was bound to happen. Sirrka hasn't really been facing up to reality too much, I think, and this was bound to happen between them eventually. Too bad it had to be so incredibly messy. And because he killed someone who WON'T stay dead.
